A colossal Attack on Titan announcement was made this weekend at Anime Boston 2014. FUNimation released the world premiere of the Attack on Titan English dub. The first 3 episodes were shown on Saturday accompanied by a panel including Mike McFarland (Director, Jean) , Josh Grelle (Armin), Matthew Mercer (Levi), and Trina Nishimura (Mikasa). An encore 5-episode marathon was then shown on Sunday.

NBC’s Heroes is returning to the TV screen with thirteen new episodes with “a stand-alone story arc,”— a move which is receiving mixed emotions from fans. Will it be as epic as the first season or will it leave audiences feeling less than heroic like later seasons? Creator Tim King will return as executive producer and there will be a preceding web series to introduce new characters and story lines, along with some familiar old faces.

Last night, Jimmy Kimmel Live had the honor of premiering the world premiere full-length trailer of the upcoming film, Guardians of the Galaxy:

This is a really bold move for the Marvel Entertainment movie industry. In the past, Marvel movies have been well-loved for their action, serious plot, and brilliant special effects. However, at this point, most of the well-known characters already have films of their own. Marvel movies are now moving towards lesser-known characters, so judging from the angle of the trailer, it appears Marvel is pairing action with comedy in Guardians of the Galaxy. This approach is making me really excited for the upcoming film, set to release 1 August 2014. Having a comedic action film hopefully will make Guardians of the Galaxy a light-hearteded, enjoyable film that can be watched by fans with any level of comic book knowledge.

Hey everyone! As I have said before, I am a huge X-Men movie buff. Although the movies may not be a totally accurate representation of the comics, I have always felt that they do a great job making superhero movies fun for all. Enjoy the trailer! The movie hits theatres July 26th, 2013.
